SIX
"Kagome?" someone whispered in my ear.
"Hm?" I pressed myself closer to the breathing warmth. "Five more minutes."
"Gome, the guys are here. Wake up."
I growled, then started at the smell of strong and sudden arousal. I jerked up and looked at Kouga.
"Kouga! What the hell?"
He flushed "It was the... It was the growl! You were sitting so close and then it just kind of, erm, surprised."
My jaw dropped as I watched Miroku purr in the doorway, rubbing one of his thighs.
"You need another nap, Kagome?" I smiled as Sango's hand appeared from the corner, slapping Miroku with a resounding noise.
"Thanks, Sango."
My eyes widened as I held back a pleasurable sound with a yelp. I twisted to gawk at Kouga as he pulled my tail out of my jeans with a hazed look in his eyes.
"H-hentai!" I punched his head, sending him face-first into the floor, shuddering the foundation of the house.
I stormed out of the room, throwing my tail over my shoulder.
"That damn wolf can get so annoying," I muttered to Sango as I pulled her, Miroku in tow, outside to where Tanuki waited.
"L-Lady Kagome, is it alright if I-?"
I held up my hand to the raccoon-dog. "Tanuki, I was Lady many years ago. And you know that as long as you are in this shrine, you are welcome to return to your natural form." I gave him a warm smile.
There was a pop and a loud puff of smoke, and the dark pudgy boy quickly turned into a large raccoon-demon-dog, roughly the size of a great dane. I giggled as he stretched his long striped tail, then flopped down on the ground, relieved and relaxed.
"Thank you so much, La-... Um, er, Kagome..." I scrathed his ears and he made a content rumbling noise.
"No problem, Tanuki." I flicked my tail off of my shoulder; it was tickling my ear too much.
I rolled my eyes as Sesshomaru's alert form suddenly appeared in the doorway, his golden ember eyes flashing around, looking for the source of whatever had startled him.
"The hell is he doing here?" Miroku asked quietly. Sesshomaru's eyes found mine and I rolled my head back, dragging my friends away as I waved off the demon.
"Don't mind him. C'mon, you guys want to go over to the park?"
"Well, Kagome," Miroku said, "I actually would prefer to stay here, if you don't mind?" He shot me a look saying that he had a reason, so I nodded.
"Yeah, sure. Whatever." I twisted one of my snake bite studs, wincing. Demon skin hated piercings. They always tried to heal.
"Why don't we go into the basement, just in case a certain statue decides to show up," Sango teased. I looked down at the bottom of the shrine's stairs and laughed. Looking down the street, I could see Kikyo's shitty car about to pull up at the bottom of the stairs.
"Yeah, that doesn't sound like a bad idea."
I looked to Sesshomaru. "You wanna join us, fluffy?" I snickered, looking at his ridiculiously puffy tail that he had wrapped around his arm. He scowled but gave a tight nod.
"Well, then, follow us down." I looked back down the stairs and pushed the others inside as I watched Kikyo get out of her car and start heading up.
Sango giggled and I pushed her harder. "Go, go, go!" I hissed, smirking. Inuyasha stared at us from the couch.
"Your clay model's here, InuBaka!" Tanuki griped. Kikyo had tried to poison Tanuki off several different occasions. So, it wasn't hard to guess that he hated the very mention of her name.
My ear twitched as a forlorn sigh escaped him. Sure, he and Kikyo had been a thing for quite some time now, but he was always bummed out whenever she was around. She tried to make my life a living hell, but I always found my way of turning her words against her.
"Yasha, tell her that we all went to the movies or something," I snickered. "And whatever you do; do not mention that Sesshomaru is here."
His eyes narrowed. "And just what the hell are you planning on doing, wench?"
I winked. "You'll see, Yasha." I clicked the door shut, looking down a few stairs at the group that was staring at me with curious eyes... Except for Sesshomaru. His face was perfectly blank.
"Kagome, what're you doing?" Miroku asked. I gave him a look, and he immediately understood. "Ahhh~."
"Shh," I hissed quietly, cocky grin in place and waiting. I carefully pulled one of the wooden slits away from another and peeked out to see Kikyo settling down next to Inuyasha.
"Okay, so here's what we're gonna do..."
Sorry guys, I know it's a short and kinda boring chapter, but I can assure you that the next one will be all that you can giggle at and more!
